We came home the other day and there was a horrendous sound coming from the trees around our house, a truly awful sound and the trees were full of birds that looked like this, we got out the binocs and looked. I didn't take this picture, though, I found it on the web. Anyway, we got out the trusty field guide and looked it up. As soon as we saw the name we knew what it was, it sounds just like the name GRACKEL!

For a while (many days, week or two), the trees on the four corners just down the street (Colorado and the Loop if you care) were infested with winged pavement painters. Really, the trees all had white collars on the pavement. They have since flown on the pollute other pastures with their cacophony. My you be so blessed!
Birds are quite beautiful. I have always wanted to be a bird. We got to see my favorite bird at the aquarium. I just love the puffin.
Wish I had a telephoto lense on my camera. We have a birdbath in our yard and we have all kinds of pretty birds. Some of them actually take baths! Don't know quite what to think of the birds who drink the bath water though.
